Our Mission

​

Nuestra Comunidad is devoted to building the wealth and health and enhancing the physical, economic, and social well-being of Roxbury and other underserved populations in greater Boston through a community-driven process that promotes self-sufficiency and neighborhood revitalization.
 

​

Nuestra accomplishes this community revitalization mission by:

• Building and selling affordable homes in order to close the racial wealth gap;

• Leveraging construction spending to achieve industry-leading levels of contracting with Minority Business Enterprises and  hiring workers of color;

• Using cultural economic development to sustain Roxbury businesses and artists;

• Developing high quality mixed-income rental housing, including artists housing, to stabilize communities and prevent displacement; and

• Engaging neighbors to plan economic development programs and projects aligned with a shared vision for closing the racial wealth gap in Boston.
